Per THR, the Michelle MacLaren-directed tentpole has found its female lead ahead of its looming shoot. The film is due in theaters June 28, 2019.

Lieberman and illustrator Riley Rossmo, ”the story revolves around a counter-intelligence unit formed by psychotherapist Dr. Sebastian Ghislain, who transforms agents known as Triplets, a reference to multiple personalities. Pratt is playing a formidable agent with the fighting skills and personalities of a cowboy, a ninja,and a viking.”
Chopra, reuniting with Universal after last year’s “Baywatch”, recently starred opposite Jim Parsons and Claire Danes in “A Kid Like Jake”.
